The result is a strong, lightweight solution for people with varying degrees of drop foot. The AFO Ankle Foot Orthosis Drop Brace provides a strong, lightweight solution for patients with drop foot secondary to a variety of neurological conditions. The energy storing properties of carbon fiber make it ideal material for this dynamic ankle foot orthosis. Age is not important. It's energy that counts.
